Juror Appreciation Week blog
As part of Juror Appreciation Week, find out how the jury selection process works in our latest blog post on Inside HMCTS. It highlights the concept of being judged by peers which dates back hundreds of years and is referenced in Magna Carta.
Jury service is one of the most important civic duties that can be asked of anyone over the age of 18. Jurors are summoned at random by the Jury Central Summoning Bureau, using electoral voting registers.
